How does the four principles of natural selection work together to respond to a change in the environment ?

The four principles of natural selection are variation (organisms within a population have their own individual differences in their appearance, such as, markings and color), inheritance (traits passed down to the offspring), high rate of population growth (which leads to their local resources to be more of a challenge to find), and differential survival/ reproduction (organisms in the population with stronger traits are more likely to survive and reproduce, aka survival of the fittest). These four principles work together to respond to chance in the environment by making sure the strongest survive and over time that species will adapt to their environment because the organisms with the better suited traits will pass their traits to its offspring.

I hope that made sense, lol.

Honey Bees have a much different social and reproductive structure as compared to humans.

djyliett [7]

Answer:

Unlike the queen bee, which has 32 chromosomes, drones have half the chromosomal charge (n= 16), so they are considered haploid.

Explanation:

The system of determination of the sex in the bees —like in other insects— is called haplodiploidy, and consists of which the females of the species possess complete charge of chromosomes, whereas the males only possess half. This is what happens with the queen bee with 32 chromosomes, while drones only have 16 chromosomes, so they are considered haploid.

Additionally, as a characteristic of haplodiploidy, males only proceed from female gametes, so they can only contribute gametes to produce females of the species.

The other options are not correct because:

Drones, with half of the chromosomal charge, cannot be diploid.
Monosomy and trisomy are defects in the distribution of chromosomes during meiosis, which imply one chromosome less or one chromosome more in the normal chromosome charge respectively.
